Kitchen Basics
Cooking Stocks

An American Original Inspired by Homemade

Cooks know the deep, concentrated flavor of a robust homemade stock. It's rich. It's savory. And Kitchen Basics rivals that authentic, premium quality so that you can have that same homemade taste at your fingertips – no matter when you plan to cook.

In 1996, Kitchen Basics was the first to introduce ready-to-use cooking stocks – and we've been perfecting them ever since. We craft our mouth-watering "liquid gold" naturally by slowly simmering the finest quality herbs and spices with beef, veal, turkey, chicken, seafood and vegetables to infuse it with layers of hearty flavor. The result is a dark, rich, high-quality stock that inspires and enhances quick, flavorful dinners and company-worthy feasts alike.

Kitchen Basics Stock: A More Flavorful Alternative to Broth

Stock is a full-flavored liquid prepared by simmering meat, poultry, seafood and vegetables for hours in water with herbs and spices, until their flavor is extracted. Darker in color and more concentrated in flavor than broth, it is ideal for use in soups, sautéing, rice and especially sauces and demi-glace. Stock's more concentrated flavor has a richer, heartier taste – one that serves as the perfect flavor-building ingredient for anything from simple to extravagant culinary creations.

The Healthier Choice for Ingredient-Conscious Cooks

Kitchen Basics stock is not just a key ingredient for your favorite soups, sauces, pasta, marinades and vegetables – it's a healthier one. Produced without as much sodium, it's still a more flavorful substitute for broth that's also:

• Certified heart-healthy by the American Heart Association®

• Low in saturated fat and cholesterol

• All Natural/No MSG added/Gluten Free
